1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Background: Prehypertension is more likely to develop into hypertension in individuals with adiposity. We aimed to explore how adiposity influences prehypertension through gut microbiota. Methods: Kaplan-Meier and Cox proportional hazard regression models were employed to evaluate the association between prehypertension and adiposity in 649 individuals. Among them, 197 consented to provide fecal samples and were divided, along with 184 additional participants, into healthy controls (HC), individuals with adiposity and normal tension (Ad-NT), and those with prehypertension (Ad-pHT) based on body mass index (BMI) and blood pressure. Shotgun metagenomic sequencing was performed on fecal samples, followed by taxonomic and functional annotations using MetaPhlAn and HUMAnN. Linear discriminant analysis effect size (LEfSe) was used to analyze differences in microbial species and metabolic pathways across groups. Partial Spearman rank correlation analysis was used to assess microbial interactions, and the relationships among metabolic pathways, species, BMI, and blood pressure. Results: Elevated BMI independently predicted the risk of prehypertension (adjusted HR = 1.072, 95% CI: 1.002-1.147). We observed the depletion of Conclusion: Shifts in
